Volkswagen Passat B6 represents the 6th generation of the Passat model range. It was produced in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 with both gasoline and diesel engines with sedan and station wagon bodies. The 4-door coupe based on the Passat B6 represents a separate model and is called the Passat CC and was produced from 2008 to 2015. In this article we will provide a description of the fuse and relay blocks of the Volkswagen Passat B6 (CC) with diagrams and photos. We will separately highlight the fuse responsible for the cigarette lighter.

Please note that the number of blocks and their execution options may differ from this material and depend on the year of manufacture and the level of electrical equipment of your car.
